For a time, Americans were starting to believe that they were making progress in the space race and that although the Soviets might have had stronger rockets, the United States had a better guiding system. This myth was busted after the Soviets were able to crash Luna 2 onto the moon.[6]

im guessing screen readers can be or are configured to just read out like emoji + the glyph name, so like emoji smiling face or emoji man kissing man or whatever

also holy poo poo:

quote:

The Kiss (Man, Man) emoji is a sequence of the 👨 Man, ❤ Heavy Black Heart, ️ Variation Selector-16, 💋 Kiss Mark and 👨 Man emojis. These are combined using a zero width joiner between each character and display as a single emoji on supported platforms.

thats pretty cool actually, i thought it had its own codepoint

In 2002, in reference to President George Bush's war on "evildoers", Crockford started using a custom non-free license, which he created by adding the requirement "The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil" to the open source MIT License for his JSMin software. This clause was carried over to JSMin-PHP, a variation of JSMin by Ryan Grove. This software was hosted on Google Code until December 2009 when, due to the additional clause, Google determined that the license was not compliant with the definition of open source software, which does not permit any restriction on how software may be used.[11][12] JSMin-PHP was forced to migrate to a new hosting provider.[13][14]

Crockford's license is intended to mock potential users of his software[15] and has caused problems for some open source projects who mistook the license for an open source variant of the MIT license. This has inspired criticism of Crockford from affected open source developers as recently as January 2014.[16][17][18] Crockford is reported to be aware of the legal implications of his license and has refused to change the license terms despite numerous requests.[19] He does, however, grant "IBM, its customers, partners, and minions" an exclusive license "to use JSLint for evil".[20]

Critical reception [edit]

Damon Knight wrote of the novel:[2]

quote:

Timeliner, by Charles Eric Maine, is that sort of amateur flight of fancy that takes leave of its premises, and its senses, in the second chapter. Almost anything can then happen except the unexpected.

Groff Conklin, reviewing the novel in Galaxy, dismissed it as "without doubt one of the most inconsequential science fiction novels ever written."[3] Anthony Boucher dismissed Timeliner as an example of "mere cliche-museums".[4] P. Schuyler Miller more charitably noted that the novel "doesn't quite meet current standards."[5]

The sessile lifestyle of barnacles makes sexual reproduction difficult, as the organisms cannot leave their shells to mate. To facilitate genetic transfer between isolated individuals, barnacles have extraordinarily long penises⁠. Barnacles probably have the largest penis to body size ratio of the animal kingdom.[10]

Barnacles can also reproduce through a method called spermcasting, in which the male barnacle releases his sperm into the water and females pick it up and fertilise their eggs.[12]

There are also international, culture-specific versions of Duffman for the overseas markets. Duffmensch, the German version of Duffman, wears a blue pickelhaube helmet and blue spandex lederhosen with a dark leather waistbelt with beer-can holders that look like ammunition pouches. He uses the German language slogan Oh Ja!.
